Be Fair To Me, Patience Jonathan Tells The Media

Dame Patience Jonathan, wife of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, has denied media reports that $175m is missing from her bank accounts.

Patience said her account balance as of the time it was frozen by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission was less than $10m.

She, therefore, urged the media to be fair to her and stop twisting facts. She said this in a statement signed by her spokesman, Mr. Sam Dokubo, on Wednesday.

The statement added, “For the avoidance of doubt, while indeed it is true that Dame Patience is in court for the protection of her fundamental rights infringed upon by a ‘No debit order’ placed on her funds by the EFCC, it is not for $15m but for funds less than $10m as has been clarified several times.
